The way Hollywood is making movies nowadays, anything with "Butch" in the title would not be about gay men...
The new film, titled just "Butch and the Kid," will tell the story of the forbidden love of these two inseperable men, drawn closer by shared peril, great riches, and life on the run.....
It's already been done, only in the female version...Thelma and Louise.
The "Fabulous" Seven
Little Big Man
My Darling Clement
The Outted Josey Wales
Stagcoach
Oh, I wish I had the time to write the synopsis of each of these titles...but I'm sure there are people wittier than I who can fill in for me...
What a joke. In truth Redford was a lousy actor. He's so wooden he could have played the wagon in some of his Westerns.
A Fist Full of Condoms
The Good, The Bad, and the Sexy
The Alhomo
The Frisky Kid
A Big Hand for the Little Man
Adam Oakley
Hung High
Pale...umm...Rider
High Plains Diva
This could go on all day.....
Don't often agree with Bob, but he and I are on the same page here.
I read today where two documentaries being shown at the Sundance Film Festival star Al Gore and Ralph Nader. I'm totally convinced these awards now exist to bestow aritificial honors on "progressive" films.
Anyway, I can see his point about Butch & Sundance. Why do a remake? New tech isn't going to give you a better production. it's just going to end up being stupid and PC, and a cringe-making flop -- like Alec Baldwin's The Getaway.
Fistful of A**
"This could go on all day..."
Unforbidden
How The West Was Worn
The Wild Hunch
They Died With Their Boots Off

Rio "GRAND"!
Dances With Wolfie

And Michael Jackson. Michael Jackson says he's never had plastic surgery except a little work on his nose.
It's funny but I have trouble imagining what these actors look like, because I only identify them with their roles. Bob isn't even as good as Tom Hanks, fa Pete's sake.
and........
Secret Of The Lone Ranger
The Naked Spur
Rio "BRAVO"!
The Man Who Shot Liberty's Valance's
He Wore A Yellow Ribbon
Three Hours To Kill
The Law Jake Wade Broke
Enough said, for now......
Redford doesn't have alot of range as an actor but he was a great director for Quiz Show and Ordinary People. When he got political and started pushing it in our face I got sick of him. And that facelift is terrible. I'm not saying it to be cruel but that was a mistake Robert.
The Outlaw Josey Will!!
"Raindrops keep falling on his head"
Now now, don't get this thread pulled :)
Me too - no way Damon and Affleck can come close to the original ... but I did hate that insipid "Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head". Ugh!
